- Alogic Folio Duo offers a dual QHD portable monitor setup that works with both MacBooks and Windows laptops
- It is one of the first portable displays to offer full gesture control and 10-point multi-touch on both Mac and Windows.
- Folio Duo also offers users the ability to charge their laptops on the go with 45W USB-C pass-through.
Portable monitors are not a new concept, with most products offering a significant improvement in screen size, resolution, or both compared to the desktop computers, laptops, or MacBooks to which they connect.
However, some, like the Alogic Folio Duo, step things up a notch while doubling the screen space, and its foldable design, along with an integrated cover stand, makes it a much easier solution to deploy and transport than many of its peers.
With a dual QHD setup coupled with a 400-nit display, the Folio Duo outperforms many of the devices it will inevitably be connected to, and considerably so, although it weighs around 1.2kg.
A premium portable dual monitor offering
The Alogic Folio Duo first appeared at InfoComm 2026, presented as a premium dual-monitor offering for professionals who simply need more screen real estate without adding as much volumetric space as some of its peers.
Alogic’s offering features dual IPS panels rated for 100% sRGB color accuracy, with a native resolution of 2560×2880 (or 2560×1440 per display). Potential gamers, however, might be disappointed with the relatively moderate 60Hz refresh rate, but it could be argued that most wouldn’t be looking for a portable dual-monitor setup to begin with.
Like most of its peers, the Folio Duo offers USB-C connectivity, but it kicks things up a notch by adding a USB-PD input for an optional power supply and a USB-C port for the device it connects to, allowing you to charge a MacBook or Windows laptop at up to 45W via the USB-C pass-through.
Alogic offers a generous 2-year warranty on the unit and lists device compatibility including Apple, Chromebook, and Microsoft devices, and the package includes a monitor cover in the box, eschewing the pressure-sensitive Active Style the company sells, even when it integrates wireless charging into the package.
The fact that it’s one of the first dual-screen portable offerings to support full gesture control and 10-point multitouch on both Mac and Windows could underline the ambitious price tag the portable monitor currently commands: a whopping $1,299, making it rival the recently modified 13.6-inch Apple MacBook Air (M5), a full-fledged computer.
However, for those who can afford it, the Folio Duo appears to be a premium portable dual-monitor offering with significantly higher resolution (and PPI), color, and build quality than the UPerfect Delta Max Touch we recently reviewed, albeit at more than double the asking price.
